Thank you, tm. I reckon Dion was a ways off his peak for the GF but he was very valuable. He's attacking. They gotta watch him. And he's handy to the fall. Worker. I love the bloke. Ripping addition to our list.Loving your work Captain Blood.
What a very astute move getting Dion to the RFC has been. He has battled his body the whole time he has been with us, we are so much better when he is in the side.
In no particular order, Meatball, Shedda and Nank.............a few handy inclusions just before the finals.
The little meatball hurt his ankle last week and now it's a wait and see.
Fingers crossed he dosent need surgery

BTW Dion is so good he has never been All Aust. Let's hope he continues to surpass that damnable faint praise.
Injured again?The little meatball hurt his ankle last week and now it's a wait and see.

I am still none the wiser:Scans have revealed a medial strain rather than a tear.
Should be a short to medium term injury
It's pretty good news.
You'd always take a strain over a tear and a medial hamstring is the 'better' hamstring injury to have. It's more related to the knee and hip motion as opposed to a failure of the muscle.
Sounds like a pretty standard 21-28 days, all going well.
If that's accurate it's even better, doesn't even sound like a strain. A bit of tightness in the medial from someone with knee and ankle issues is par for the course, a few light days and a bit of strength work and away he goes.
Not to say he will play round one, but in a long term sense you'd be more worried about an ingrown toenail.
Sounds like Balmey has taken over media training!"I'll be good for round one, it is just a little hiccup.
